Oh, bother . . . .

Okay, this is the deal. I've got a sixteen-year-old who is entering college. Yeah, it's a stretch, but skip a few years and suddenly you're in his shoes, too. So, anyway, this kid is entering because his family situation puts him there, probably by a bunch of geezers smoozing away with expensive bourbon and thick cigars who are not mentioned for obvious reasons.

 

So, anyway, this sixteen-year-old boy has an eighteen-year-old assigned to ease his entry and, well, not knowing the kid's age becomes very interested in finding out. Well, of course, he dreams about the kid. Who wouldn't. But the boy is not forthcoming about his age or his history.

 

The sixteen-year-old's problem is he kind of likes the other boy, too, but he has yet to cross the line between knowing you like boys more than you like girls and doing something about it. Plus, he knows he is only a kid in the eyes of every boy on campus, including his assigned "friend."

 

It all sounds kind of interesting: Boy A wants Boy B, but knows he is too young; Boy B wants Boy A, but suspects he's too old; and to top everything off, they are assigned the same dorm room.

 

Just some thoughts about writing project I'm struggling over. :angry:

Sounds like it could be complex and emotionally charged story. I would like to read it. Why struggling? Anything I can do to help?

My reaction was the same as Nephy's. What's the struggle? Sounds like a good idea, and you're a good writer.
